For the record. I would NEVER drive to a casino to exclusively play MS Stud.
Since I started gaming again, Tuesday was the first time I went to a casino alone.

I got free noodle bar comps like forever at this one casino. Plus I had a 15$ cash comp.

I arrive at the casino just after 7pm. I didn't really have a plan on what I was going to bet.

I talked to the dealer on Mississippi Stud (but I could write a much longer story about that)

Went to the craps table.. Now I like to wait for the point to be decided before I throw my 100$ down for cheques. The table had 10 people on the rail. There were two Pass Line Bets. No Don't. Nobody betting Comes. One player had Place bets on the left of stick. One player had Place bets on the right of stick. (The Point was 8) One player was betting the Hard 8 for 4$. Nobody was betting Field. I stood left of stick and was BSing with him about the scrubs at the table. I waited like 6 rolls and still no 7 out. I got impatient and went to MS Stud.

The table was dead. Just me and the dealer that I was talking to.
Hand 1. QJ
1X - 6.... think about it..
1X - Q
3X - J
Two Pair Winner
--
Hand 2. J-10 spades
1X 4 spades
1X Jd

Pair Jacks winner.

Hand 3. K-10
1X K
3X brick
3X brick
Pair Kings Winner.

Hand 4. 54 clubs
1X 9
Fold

Hand 5. A7 spades
1X Q spades
1X Q hearts
3X brick
Pair Queens Winner.

Hand 6. Q4 diamonds
1X 3 spades.
FOLD (Next card was Queen D'OH)

Hand 7. J-10
1X 10d
3X 10s
3X brick
Three of a Kind Winner

Hand 8. JJ
3X brick
3X brick
3X brick

I played 8 hands. Won 6 of them (had I called every hand all the way down would have won 7)

I did 5$ ante EVERY hand. Never pressed up bet. Left after being dealt JJ. Except for the two hands that I folded, I tipped 5$ after each hand. Got my 15$ comp. I played three different Wheel of Fortune slots. Ate at the noodle bar. I left the casino with 280$ more than I entered with. Sikk run.

I have no plans to ever play Mississippi Stud ever again, lol. If THAT dealer is dealing it, then I'll play. Other than that. I'll play other games.

If you are worried about your gambling, why did you start gambling again?

Buzz,

It's just that we went through this long post of him stopping gambling. And all these people gave him advice, then like 3 days later, he posts about MS Stud.

Then bac.

It's hard to be like "Great job bro" when you know he shouldn't be gambling.

Yes, gambling is fun, at least it can be ... until it becomes an all-consuming addiction.

Hello, embezzlement ... bankruptcy ... divorce ...

Ah yes, divorce ... love is an even crazier addiction ...
